There's a wizard weapon/offhand set named after her. She personally doesn't show up.

thanks haha that's pretty cool^~^

As others have said, Shatotto is a different person from Shantotto. They are two different people, but the FFXIV version is OBVIOUSLY an illusion to the XI version. Shantotto was very popular/loved and it would make sense that they'd pull a pseudo-version of her in here. Think about it like the iconic Cid that is unmistakably included in EVERY Final Fantasy. They're not the 'same person' but they are obviously connected.

No, they are different people, like Cid Highwind and Sid Meier.

She was also possessed of an otherworldly talent for crafting thaumaturgical staves. Among her creations, the Stardust Rods are by far the most powerful and coveted, believed as they are to be fashioned from the celestial remnants of a star Shatotto herself brought down to Hydaelyn and clove asunder."

This means FF11 is connected to FF14? or Shantoto is now like Cid.

Fact: FFXI preceded FFXIV.
Fact: This is Vanadiel 100,000 years in the Future.
Fact: Galka and Roegadyn stem from the same blood line.

Now give me my tail.

When the "Traitor" Makes a mention of a paladin he knew long ago in the beginning of the paladin quest line, it was (in my oppinion) an obvious reference to Cecil (im probably wrong though)

there was another thread like this yesterday > http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...7134-Shatotto?


The name is not a typo, but it remains to be seen wether it is a direct link or just a vague cameo
